Sure someone having a stir , as we have run a standard 993 engine in our GT2R without knowledge of its history although we used RSR cams and thus a top end rebuild , in the 24 hours last year as well as a 3 and 4 hour race this year with no issues. This included a few recorded visita to 8,200 RPM which were not ideal.
Air cooled Porsche engines bulletproof PERIOD.
The 993GT2 has a different bottom end though doesn't it? Wider bearing journals etc?Air cooled Porsche engines bulletproof PERIOD.
The 993 NA (vario or non vario) is known to throw cranks and rods..
I believe the 964 crank has wider journals which is why the GT3 crank was derived from this and not the 993 item. Well, this is what I've read.
